Foto Friday:  Who is Driving?

Am I driving or will you?  Standing in the driveway between our cars, this Sandhill Crane doesn't seem to quite know yet which of these cars he wants to get into. 

Either one, he is perfectly color-coordinated with his grey coat and red cap! Don't you think?

Just another example that Florida Nature is right at your doorstep!

Silvia, That is a great title for this wonderful photograph!  I have no idea what kind of bird that is, but it makes a wonderful subject to photograph!

With a beak like that, the crane can decide who is driving Silvia. I think I'd go back to where I came from for a while until the bird walked away.  :)

Jeanne and Ralph, that would be a good trick!

Myrl, isn't he? They don't have too much fear.

Tony, it's a Sandhill Crane, one of the largest birds in North America.

Patricia, that's a funny thought, I'm trying to picture him riding a bike. :-)

William, I think he's looking to see which one of his parents will give him the keys to the car!

Joyce, sure enough, he stuck around for a while.

Tom, yes, I head they are opportunitistic eaters... lol

Morgan, sure does, especially when it happens in your own yard.

The white car will definitely give better contrast to the red feathers. Thanks for sharing. Margaret
